"This is the 'history' of the BASIC-DOS, the first version of DOS that might have been created for the IBM PC.
"In this alternate timeline, the year is 1980, and we know that in a little over a year, on August 12, 1981, the IBM PC will be introduced, and we really want to make the first PC operating system as compelling and powerful as possible.
"So, we have more time to prepare than Microsoft originally did, and we have the benefit of hindsight (or foresight, since it's 1980).
"For example, we know that higher capacity diskettes and hard disks will soon become available, so maybe we can make some early design decisions about the FAT file system that will smooth the way for those improvements."
